Looking for Ladies: Finding Women in Local Resources

Research output: Contribution to ConferencePoster

Abstract

Women's philanthropy in Northampton is deeply entwined with the Boot and Shoe Industry. Many of the manufacturers were
heavily involved in political, religious and general civic matters and as a result so were their wives and daughters. Finding
women in a local history study such as this can be challenging. By considering a variety of local resources, however, it is
possible to gain an understand of the philanthropic activities of these women.
